At their booth, they showcased continuous integration for automotive productivity, Waltham (an open source network protocol for sharing graphical content between cluster and infotainment domains), and Apertis (a GNU/Linux-based white-label automotive IVI platform). Collabora positioned itself as an open source specialist with deep automotive industry knowledge and SoC/GPU supplier relationships. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it. Read it at the original source: ## Questions this post answers ### What is Apertis and what is it used for in automotive development? Apertis is a GNU/Linux-based platform designed to deliver a white-label, app-centric, end-to-end automotive IVI (In-Vehicle Infotainment) solution. It is open source and targets automotive manufacturers and suppliers who need a ready-made, customizable infotainment foundation without building from scratch. _Automotive developers evaluating IVI platforms track Apertis and similar open source options on daily.dev._ ### What is Waltham network protocol used for in automotive systems? Waltham is an open source network protocol that enables seamless sharing of graphical content and input between the cluster and infotainment domains in a vehicle, while maintaining security boundaries between those domains. _Engineers working on in-vehicle display architectures find protocol comparisons like this on daily.dev._ --- Tags: [#open-source](https://daily.dev/tags/open-source), [#cicd](https://daily.dev/tags/cicd), [#automotive](https://daily.dev/tags/automotive) [View this post on daily.dev](https://daily.dev/posts/european-r-car-consortium-forum-gpuqwsrai) ```json {"@context":"https://schema.org","@graph":[{"@type":"Organization","@id":"https://daily.dev/#organization","name":"daily.dev","url":"https://daily.dev","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://daily.dev/apple-touch-icon.png","width":180,"height":180},"sameAs":["https://twitter.com/dailydotdev","https://github.com/dailydotdev","https://www.linkedin.com/company/daily-dev-ltd"]},{"@type":"WebSite","@id":"https://daily.dev/#website","url":"https://daily.dev","name":"daily.dev","publisher":{"@id":"https://daily.dev/#organization"},"potentialAction":{"@type":"SearchAction","target":{"@type":"EntryPoint","urlTemplate":"https://daily.dev/search?q={search_term_string}"},"query-input":"required name=search_term_string"}}]} {"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"TechArticle","headline":"European R-Car Consortium Forum","url":"https://daily.dev/posts/european-r-car-consortium-forum-gpuqwsrai","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://daily.dev/posts/european-r-car-consortium-forum-gpuqwsrai"},"datePublished":"2026-08-11T08:55:27.641Z","dateModified":"2026-08-11T09:26:00.556Z","description":"Collabora announced its participation and exhibition at the first Renesas European R-Car Consortium Forum in Düsseldorf, Germany.
